Feature Integration Map

How Features Work Together

1. Conversation View → Analysis Features

ViewConversation (main)
  ↓ "Analysis 📊" menu
  ├── Speaker Analytics (Week 8)
  ├── Edit History (Week 10)
  ├── Simulacra Levels (Week 11)
  ├── Cognitive Biases (Week 12)
  └── Implicit Frames (Week 13)

2. Cross-Feature Analysis

Same Conversation ID flows through:
  - Simulacra: What level of abstraction?
  - Biases: What reasoning errors?
  - Frames: What worldviews?

Example Node Analysis:
  "Everyone agrees markets solve this"
  ├── Simulacra: Level 3 (tribal signaling)
  ├── Biases: Bandwagon effect, confirmation bias
  └── Frames: Market fundamentalism, short-term focus

3. Data Flow

API Endpoint Summary

Simulacra Detection

  • POST /api/conversations/{id}/simulacra/analyze
  • GET /api/conversations/{id}/simulacra
  • GET /api/nodes/{id}/simulacra

Bias Detection

  • POST /api/conversations/{id}/biases/analyze
  • GET /api/conversations/{id}/biases
  • GET /api/nodes/{id}/biases

Frame Detection

  • POST /api/conversations/{id}/frames/analyze
  • GET /api/conversations/{id}/frames
  • GET /api/nodes/{id}/frames

Common Pattern:

  1. POST to /analyze - Runs AI analysis (slow, caches results)
  2. GET to /results - Retrieves cached results (fast)
  3. GET to /node/{id} - Get analysis for specific node

Testing Summary

Unit Tests (Per Feature)

  • Simulacra: 8 tests passing (test_simulacra_detector.py)
  • Bias: 8 tests passing (test_bias_detector.py)
  • Frame: 11 tests passing (test_frame_detector.py)

Integration Tests

  • All Features: 8 tests passing (test_integration_all_features.py)

Total Test Coverage

  • Backend Tests: 35 passing, 6 skipped (integration placeholders)
  • Coverage: ~85% of critical paths

Run All Tests:

cd lct_python_backend
pytest -v

Run with Coverage:

pytest --cov=. --cov-report=term --cov-report=html

Performance Characteristics

Analysis Costs (Claude 3.5 Sonnet)

Per-Node Costs:

  • Simulacra Detection: ~$0.004-0.005
  • Bias Detection: ~$0.006-0.007
  • Frame Detection: ~$0.006-0.008

Per-Conversation (50 nodes average):

  • Simulacra: ~$0.20-0.25
  • Biases: ~$0.30-0.35
  • Frames: ~$0.30-0.40
  • Total: ~$0.80-1.00

Processing Time (with Claude API)

  • Single node: ~2-4 seconds
  • 50-node conversation: ~3-5 minutes (concurrent processing)
  • Results cached for instant re-display

Optimization Strategies

  1. Caching: Results stored in database, no re-analysis unless forced
  2. Confidence threshold: Only return high-confidence detections (>0.6)
  3. Concurrent processing: Multiple nodes analyzed in parallel
  4. Prompt efficiency: Optimized prompts reduce token usage

Known Limitations

Current Scope

  1. Single-user system: No authentication/authorization
  2. No cost dashboard UI: Cost tracking implemented in backend, UI pending
  3. No real-time monitoring: Instrumentation code ready, dashboard pending
  4. Manual analysis trigger: Users must click "Run Analysis" button

Future Enhancements

  1. Automatic analysis: Run on conversation import
  2. Batch processing: Analyze multiple conversations
  3. Export functionality: Export analysis results to PDF/CSV
  4. Comparison views: Compare analyses across conversations
  5. Temporal analysis: Track how biases/frames evolve over time
  6. Speaker profiling: Aggregate analyses per speaker

Troubleshooting

"No analysis results found"

  • Cause: Analysis not yet run
  • Solution: Click "Run Analysis" button on the analysis page

"Analysis failed: API Error"

  • Cause: Missing or invalid Anthropic API key
  • Solution: Check ANTHROPIC_API_KEY in .env

"Database error: table does not exist"

  • Cause: Migrations not run
  • Solution: Run alembic upgrade head

Tests failing with "anthropic module not found"

  • Cause: Tests mock anthropic, but import fails
  • Solution: Tests include sys.modules['anthropic'] = MagicMock() - ensure it runs before imports

High analysis costs

  • Cause: Claude 3.5 Sonnet is premium model
  • Solution:
    • Use confidence threshold to reduce false positives
    • Cache results (already implemented)
    • Consider cheaper models for simpler tasks (future)

Next Steps (Post-Week 14)

Immediate (High Priority)

  1. Deploy to staging environment
  2. Run integration tests on real data
  3. Conduct user acceptance testing
  4. Fix any discovered bugs

Short-term (1-2 weeks)

  1. Implement cost dashboard UI
  2. Add monitoring/alerting
  3. Performance profiling and optimization
  4. Write deployment automation scripts

Long-term (1-3 months)

  1. Multi-user support with authentication
  2. Export functionality for analyses
  3. Temporal trend analysis
  4. Custom prompt templates per user
  5. Mobile-responsive improvements
